I got an answer from vi.stackexchange.com: * I needed filetype on in .vimrc to get it to recognize the filetype. (Don't think I had that before when it worked!?? And in fact once I had this all working, I deleted the filetype on and it still worked. Go figger.) * I needed syntax on in .vimrc to get it to highlight syntax. (Also don't think I had this before, but I DO need this one.) * I did NOT need the first autocommand to source ~/.vim/yaml.vim. Without it, vim sources /usr/share/vim/vim80/syntax/yaml.vim. * In the remaining autocommand they recommend I use setlocal instead of set, and sts=2 (softtabstop) instead of ts=2 (tabstop).
